At a cool $250 these W-Shock custom laser cut wood versions of the G-Shock 6900 are available from Wood Shock now in simply Black or Red. I would get one of these if i had all the money in the world but unfortunately i can see that they would probably go a bit strange after a while of wearing in the British weather. They have original casio rubber straps so i wouldn't be afraid of getting splinters.
As always, thanks for reading! d:-D

If you are musically inclined like i am then you will be very happy to hear some new Deftones! so here are two tracks from the forth coming album Diamond Eyes;
1. "Rocket Skates" official video directed by 13th Witness
2. "Diamond Eyes" the title track with lyrics
Here is a quote from Consequence Of Sound that shows why this album is so important to the Deftones fan base;
"Due to a tragic accident, Deftones band member Chi Cheng was hospitalized and currently remains in a minimally conscious state. This very fact has probably altered a Deftones musical tangent in one fell swoop, possibly for the better, and in more profound ways united a fan base beyond borders. Tragedy has a way of bringing people back to basics...Deftones were in the process of recording a follow-up to 2006’s Saturday Night Wrist, an album heavily influenced by trip-hop via leader Chino Moreno’s as-of-late-stagnant side project Team Sleep. This new album was originally to be titled Eros, but after bassist Cheng entered his coma, plans were uprooted for obvious reasons. Previous recordings were put on hold in favor of “Rocket Skates” and the aforementioned Diamond Eyes. As the record title indicates, the intent here was witnessing beauty and celebrating life, and in the wake of Cheng’s fallen status such a message becomes all the more poignant. While band members have stated that pushing back the release of Eros (which will hopefully see the light of day, given its supposedly more-aggressive nature) has nothing to do with Chi Cheng’s current condition, we wish for the best on both counts."

I have soft spot for Japanese brand Mackdaddy, they have had some amazing fitteds designs over the last few years and this new one stands out for me. Based on a mix of Slayer's old and new logos re-arranged to say "Layers" instead.
Old;
New;
I don't quite know why they have gone for the word "layers" but hey it seems to work any ways. On a nice plain 5950 in Black or Red and available now at Zo Zo Town.

Again Nike SB have released a Dinosaur Jr. pair of kicks. These are a vast improvement over the last silver pair i feel and worth a look. I expect to see these in at Flatspot soon. Hypebeast had this to say;
"Nike SB follows up its Dinosaur Jr. Dunk High from 2007 with a second pair of kicks paying tribute to the band, this time shown on the newly released Zoom Omar Salazar. The kicks take on a glittery synthetic upper which plays perfectly off the outer space theme developed for the Flywire-infused design."

Kicks on Fire had this to say;
"Purple is known for being the color of royalty, and although many sneaker fanatics may not know that, the color is still very popular, so imagine what you get when you allow the hue to grace one of the most popular shoes of all time. Here we feature a pair of Nike
Lovely, now I have taken a browse online and these kicks aren't available to the UK from Nike's online store (not cool NIKE!) So I will get back with an update and pricing (likely to be just under £70) for the UK.
